The new skin for the forum is set to launch soon, featuring a complete graphical overhaul while maintaining the existing layout and functionality. Users are encouraged to provide feedback after a week of use to allow time for adjustment. Some issues with postbit conditionals, such as contributor badges, are being addressed before the official release. Initial reactions are mixed, with some users appreciating the modern look and others finding the text harder to read against the new background. The old skin will remain available for those who prefer it, ensuring flexibility for all users.

That was a recommendation the mentors made to Greg, to eliminate the join date. There were just too many things cluttering up the box under the usernames, and we decided people's posts should be judged on the merit of the post, not how long they've been here, so there really isn't any need to have a join date so prominent. The join date is still listed in every members' profile, so if you're really curious how long someone has been here, you can look it up there.


Not curious at all!:wink: Oh although I can simply back to the old skin if I'd be curious.

Yes, in the column of buttons on the rightmost side of the flash header. It reads "Home," "User CP," "Upgrade," "Guidelines," "Links," and "Blog."

Ah, I see... When I posted, I was using Firefox (on which I chose not to install Flash).

Whenever I want to search a word, it only searches through yesterday and today's threads, I guess. Do we have to use advanced search for everything? :cry:

<sorry that I'm always nagging about sth! :redface:>
